Our goal is to keep you updated to offer you the best device experience, Drneely. Are you scanning for operating system updates or app updates? Is this through certain menu options or displayed at random from home screen?

If you looked at what i typed it doesnt say app update. It is for the operating system update check through settings and check for update.

I'm having this same issue. Received the Maxx as a replacement for my broken razr hd, and no matter if on WiFi or mobile network it constantly tells me it can't check for updates. Also, places I always got strong 4g coverage with the razr hd is now  getting slow 3g network. Phone always says I'm roaming, when my wife's phone works fine.

We know how important it is to have a working phone and great service Demon627. I'm sorry your phone is searching for updates and showing roaming status. This is not the experience we want you to have.


Where are you located? Lets try a SIM Card pull to help with the service issues. Here are the steps http://vz.to/1u9aVI2 . Please tell us what software you have on phone. Select Apps >Settings >ABout phone> System version > Baseband version. We will let you know if the software is up to date.

System version:

24.3.7.obake-maxx_Verizon.Verizon.en.us

Baseband version:

MSM8960Pro_BP_23255.132.81.00R

Phone still says I'm roaming after sim pull, and will not check for updates. Says I'm not in home network. Will not check for updates over WiFi either

Zip is 28659. Had great coverage on my last phone at my home and work. I've only had this phone a week, it's a new phone Replacement for my razr hd. It's been like this since I got it out of the box. So apps aren't the issue.

I appreciate knowing the details about the device, Demon627. I now have a good idea why there may have been trouble getting updates. The area you're in is what we refer to as the Extended Network Service area. In that area, the service you get is provided by a Verizon Wireless partner that actually holds right to coverage. While you should have no problems making and recieving calls and messages, and get great data connection, your updates can meet challenges.


I recommend getting the device closer to or within the Verizon Wireless coverage are to try your updates again. There are stronger areas of Verizon coverage just south of your zip code. You can use our online Coverage Map (http://vz.to/18Mbqt8 ) to find the best spot.
